Title: Automatic vent chamber for a foaming liquid
Inventor: RYAN CHARLES RAYMOND
IPC: B67D1/12
Filed: 1998-03-31
Abstract: A system for delivering foaming liquids, typically drinks such as beer, comprises electronic means to monitor the condition of the liquid/foam/gas mixture in a chamber 14. The chamber is supplied with the drink from a keg 3, propelled by a gas 1. In the chamber 14, a float 5 varies its position with varying liquid level, and has means - such as a magnet or a mirror - of activating two or more level sensors 6, 7, 8. If there is excess foaming in the chamber then the ratio of liquid to gas reduces, the float is sensed to be moving downwards and an electronic circuit 12 controls a solenoid valve 10 in order to vent gas from the upper part of the chamber. Once the liquid is at its optimum height again, liquid is permitted to flow from the chamber 14 via solenoid valve 9 to the point-of-service 11. Furthermore, the system detects when the liquid supply is exhausted, and stops the flow from the chamber, thereby preventing the discharge of large amounts of compressed gas. Alternatively, the system can switch to another liquid source, such as further kegs (figure 2).

Title: FM radio receiver with a reduction of the AM produced at the edges of the IF filter response
Inventor: LICHTERFELD STEFAN
IPC: H04B1/26
Filed: 1998-04-16
Abstract: In an FM receiver an IF filter 2 may introduce AM to signals in adjacent channels which lie on the outer slopes of the filter response curve. This is eliminated by detecting the AM and controlling the gain of an amplifier in input stage 1 (consisting of an RF filter, a mixer and the amplifier) which precedes the filter. The detection may be via the current supply to the IF pre-amplifier 3 using a detection resistor and a voltage measurement followed by separation of the AC component. May be used in a portable or mobile phone.

Title: An electro-hydraulic braking system
Inventor: HARRIS ALAN LESLIE
IPC: B60T7/04
Filed: 1998-10-24
Abstract: An electro-hydraulic braking system of the type which operates normally in a brake-by-wire (EHB) mode wherein hydraulic pressure is applied to braking devices at the vehicle wheels in proportion to the driver's braking demand as sensed electronically at a brake pedal, operates in a push-through mode, if the brake-by-wire mode should fail, wherein hydraulic pressure is applied to the braking devices at the vehicle wheels by way of a master cylinder coupled mechanically to the brake pedal. In order to minimise jolting within the system when changeover from push-through to brake-by-wire braking takes place, the existence of a push-through condition is recognised during an initialisation stage of the EHB mode and the initial EHB demand is set at the prevailing push-through braking or deceleration level and then adapted smoothly to the desired EHB demand.

IPC: C10G25/03
Abstract: 982,445. Separating hydrocarbons with molecular sieves. ESSO RESEARCH & ENGINEERING CO. Aug. 21, 1963, No. 33083/63. Drawings to Specification. Heading B1L. A mixture of hydrocarbons on passing through a molecular sieve gives an effluent free of aromatic, hydrocarbons, the feed being discontinued at about aromatic breakthrough and the adsorbent desorbed with an aromatic stream which may be from a previous desorption phase to give an effluent of non-aromatic hydrocarbons and finally a gaseous desorbent is used to obtain a pure aromatic effluent Toluene and xylene are exemplified, while the separation of benzene from hexane or a naphtha fraction is disclosed using benzene as the first desorbent and ammonia or carbon dioxide as the second desorbent. The second gaseous desorbent may also be H 2 S, SO 2  or organic amines, nitriles, nitrates and halides or other small highly polar molecules. Zeolite X is disclosed as being suitable for use. The adsorption cycle may be at 100-800 ‹F., 0À5-100 p.s.i.a. and at a rate of 0À1-10 w/w./hr. whilst the two desorption phases may also be worked under the same conditions. The amount of aromatic desorbate recycled may be equal to the non- aromatic hydrocarbons adsorbed on the sieve. A continuous operation may be achieved by having two or more adsorption columns which are operated cyclically.

Title: A brake-by-wire system for a motor vehicle
Inventor: COX DAVID ROBERT
IPC: B60T8/88
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: A brake-by-wire system for a motor vehicle comprises a gas spring 10 which provides both feel for the driver and a pressure signal from sensor 8 to an electronic control unit 11. The control unit 11 also receives signals from a pedal position sensor 13 via an optic fibre 14 and a wheel speed sensor 24. A brake force generating means 12, including a hydraulic pump and valve assembly, is controlled by signals from the control unit e.g.for anti-lock braking. Failure of one of the sensors 8 and 13 may be indicated by comparing the signals from those sensors, and, if both sensors fail, the pedal actuates a switch 15 to ensure that braking is available. Sensor 13 may also measure pedal speed, a high speed, emergency application resulting in a greater ratio of braking effort to applied pedal force. A driver operable switch may be provided for selecting one of several pre-determined ratios.

Title: Endoluminal stent
Inventor: BARKER STEPHEN GEORGE EDWARD
IPC: A61F2/07
Filed: 1999-12-23
Abstract: An endoluminal stent has a core 1 such as stainless steel which has an expandable capability through the provision of slits which form interstices 1a after assisted or self-expansion following which the core is sufficiently rigid to support the vessel into which it is inserted. The core 1 is shown here in a partially expanded. The core 1 has an outer covering 2 of a material such as Dacron or PTFE which is coated on surface with an agent or agents such as collagen or gelatin, in order to decrease the material porosity and enhance incorporation into surrounding tissues. This coating in itself may be bonded with or incorporate a therapeutic agent or agents such as Heparin or an antibiotic. Internally the core 1 includes a lining 3 of a material similar to the outer covering layer and this may also be coated with an agent or agents such as collagen or gelatin, in order to decrease the material porosity and enhance incorporation into surrounding tissues. The outer covering and the lining are joined around the ends of the core. The stent thus provides smoothed blood flow as well as reducing re-stenosis due to muscle cell growth as well as offering a means for long term delivery of a therapeutic agent.

Title: Preparation of 2-nitrobenzaldehyde and 2-nitrobenzylidenechloride
IPC: C07C201/12
Filed: 1975-03-25
Abstract: 2-Nitrobenzaldehyde, a valuable chemical intermediate, is produced by treating the alkali metal salt of a 2-nitrophenylpyruvic acid with an alkali metal hypochlorite in an aqueous medium to produce the corresponding 2-nitrobenzylidene chloride which, upon hydrolysis, yields the desired aldehyde. The 2-nitrophenylpyruvic acid starting material is advantageously prepared through the reaction of a 2-nitrotoluene and a diester of oxalic acid in the presence of an alkali metal alcoholate and can be used directly in the subsequent hypochlorite reaction without isolation. The process is industrially attractive in terms of the overall yield, the availability of starting materials, and the ease of the manipulative steps involved.
